Wisk-I know is available in US but only lasted a short time here, funny Mum liked it had a built in deodorizer from memory.

Kellogg's Puffa-Puffa Rice Cereal (my brother and I ate only a half box of this crap before it was thrown out) The American Cleaning Institute in a statement said, "Manufacturers are continuing their work to provide even more science and research to fill data gaps identified by FDA." Unguentine Spray (for insect bites, cuts, scrapes and sunburn. There's a mention of it on "I Love Lucy" in "The Fashion Show" episode)The rule does not affect hand sanitizers or wipes, or products used in health care such as hospitals and nursing homes. Companies will have one year to remove these antibacterial soaps from the market or reformulate them, although many have already been phasing out the ingredients.

For a real taste of home, browse our Puddings and Desserts section and get tempted by all of the delicious food that you could have delivered to your door. Remember Angel Delight? Nothing could taste more nostalgic than this lovely whipped dessert and we sell so many different flavours! Ambrosia Devon Custard is another family favourite along with Ambrosia Semolina, Ambrosia Creamed Rice, Ambrosia Rice Pudding and Ambrosia Tapioca (remember that from school lunches?!). For that special occasion you will probably do what we do in the UK and go to your higher end supermarket to get that lovely treat to make your day. We recommend the fabulous Marks and Spencer Salted Caramel Sauce to add that special something to your ice cream or their White Chocolate Fudge Sauce - a real favourite of our grandchildren! Waitrose too can offer you those sweet treats - try their Seriously Chocolatey Dipping Sauce which is simply heavenly! Frank, I SOOO remember one of the neighbors "throwing" water on the clothes, rolling them up, placing them in her refrigerator and waiting for an employment agency "domestic" to come do her ironing. Many of the brand in this section have failed because they were too far away from what the consumer wanted, but sometimes products fail because they aren't different enough from other popular products. This is certainly the case of Radion washing powder. Along with Pear's soap, Radion was one of the many brands for the chop when the Anglo-Dutch conglomerate announced it would be narrowing its scope on 400 'power' brands. I forgot about Clorox Detergent. I was working in the LA area and apparently it was past test market but not national so every time i went to California, I would stuff some boxes in my luggage. I still have one box left securely wrapped in plastic. It was a pretty good product and low sudsing to boot with a great fragrance. R.M.Gow's-powerful,hardworking washing powder which gives you real value for money.-I kid you not that entire sentence was its full name.

MY ACCOUNT

Mom used Jergen's Lotion in the glass with the pump. It sat on her dresser. It smelled like cherries. I loved that fragranace. I would sneak in there and squirt it all over myself. Of course she knew what was going on. My mother was very tolerant! The only thing you couldn't touch was her sewing machine. She would have a hissy. Famous-Barr actually advertising drug-store stuff (they pulled this out of the stores in the early 80s I'd guess) Surf and Bold, marketed as cleaning well on the whole wash and costing a little less, not specifically aimed at any market group but definitely VFM.

Brands like Dial and Softsoap now instead use three ingredients — benzethonium chloride, benzalkonium chloride, and chloroxylenol — which are not covered by this FDA rule. Unilever's final decision was to amalgamate Radion into its brand, and it continues under the banner Surf Fun Fresh. Ariel & Radion - TV adverts centred around science and men in white coats, marketed towards stains, smells, target audience DINK's - Double Income No Kids and families who were well off. Surprising number of brands that were test marketed but never made it nationally. Especially since the New York Metro area is not used as a test market area so we miss a lot of products.Persil Automatic - 80s/Early 90s - My Gran used to have a big box of Persil Automatic and wash the teatowels/bartowels in her Bendix/Zanussi Costco's "Clout" bargain powder, also with phosphates, which worked very well. When they pulled the phosphates out, it performed poorly. Companies will no longer be able to market antibacterial washes with these ingredients because manufacturers did not demonstrate that the ingredients are both safe for long-term daily use and more effective than plain soap and water in preventing illness and the spread of certain infections," the FDA said. We used Life Buoy, Camay (the old formula), Lux. Then in the 70's we started using Irish Spring and it was so stong smelling and I sneezed so hard I got a nose-bleed. My brothers howled over that one!
